I appreciate the props Amate. I have followed you and the other great carvers that have commented and am pumped by the response. I will keep adding and will post my latest as soon as it gets warm enough to paint.

SUREALISTIC! Lot of great thing on your ground, I like especilally "Walker" and the black PNG figure. also love how your work on all side of the trunk.
André Breton did not deny this fantastic collection of tiki.

Whoa! An Andre Breton reference! (i had to look him up- You are too kind mon ami laojia) Thanks BBBen, I'm a long time fan. Glad Kirby liked the floating heads. I'm just a hacker whackin' my wood, and enjoy myself just like you all do.

Great collection of work going on there. You have a cool whimsical style. I also dig the way you name the tikis and almost give each one a back story. That is a great touch and fun. Keep it up man, looks great.

been checking these out for a week or so and keep going back.
Looks like you are grabbing your influences from every-which-a-where,
and I think that's cool. A little bit of this...a bit of that...
and some very interesting carvings are the result. Great colors too.
Welcome aboard.

Thank you Matt Reese- After spending so much time with them they really do develop a story. Conga I have admired your work since I started checking out this forum about a year ago. You also have a wide variety of influences.
